Hi Jeff!

Appreciate the response! Adding this line to etc/hosts fixed the issue with 
uploading .fpg files to the red_pitaya.

I reinstalled casperfpga in the way you outlined, and the line last of the 
install reads "Finished processing dependencies for 
casperfpga==0.4.4.dev932+master.eac2d46", so it seems like now I have version 
0.4.4. I am still having issues with the estimate_fpga_clock() function, 
however. It continues to read randomly changing values, all much higher than 
the 125 MHz I am expecting. Do you have any other suggestions for what might be 
wrong?

Best,
Nitika

Hello Nitika,



I’m not using conda environment so I can’t comment on that,  but:



1.  To clear the “Odd?” problem I ssh’d into red pitaya and added “127.0.0.1 
localhost” line to etc/hosts on red pitaya.



3.  To clear the “value seems to also be varying rapidly rather than 
incrementing steadily as expected” problem I updated casperfpga from version 
0.1.1 to 0.4.4.  This can be done by doing:



~/casperfpga$ sudo pip install -r requirements

~/casperfpga$ sudo pip install .



instead of:



~/casperfpga$ sudo pip install -r requirements

~/casperfpga$ sudo pip install casperfpga



i.e., doing it the first way installs from the local repo instead of the remote 
repo which I think contains an outdate version of casperfpga.  You can verify 
your version is ipython by:



In[x] casperfpga.--version--   (not sure I have the syntax exactly right)



Hope that helps -- Jeff

Subject: [casper] Red Pitaya programming/clocking issue?



Hi all!



I am getting started with casper on a Red Pitaya 125-14. I've been following 
the tutorial about using the ADC/DAC boards 
(https://casper-toolflow.readthedocs.io/projects/tutorials/en/latest/tutorials/redpitaya/tut_adc_dac.html)
 and have run into a few issues:



  1.  I'm not able to use upload the upload_to_ram_and_program method with the 
.fpg file. I get this "ERROR:10.42.0.69:10.42.0.69: no programming informs yet. 
Odd?" ​and I don't seem to be able to activate the tcpborphserver on the red 
pitaya either to fix it as I've seen in a previous archive thread.
  2.

  3.  I can use the .bof file for programming the red pitaya, so I've been 
moving forward with that. If I try to get the clock speed, however, using 
estimate_fpga_clock(), the output estimated clock speed changes wildly with 
time and is never consistent with the 125 MHz speed I expect. Additionally, if 
I try to read the adc_samp_cnts register as outlined in the tutorial, the value 
seems to also be varying rapidly rather than incrementing steadily as expected.



Has anyone encountered these issues before? I have all the packages installed 
in a conda environment.





Best,

Nitika
